Product Features
- The best parcels of each block was picked at phenolic ripeness and then fermented separately in open-top tanks.
- A combination of punch-downs and pump-overs were used to ensure optimal extraction.
- The wine was left on the skins for an additional 2-3 weeks after fermentation.
- Malolactic fermentation occurred naturally.
- 300-litre French oak barrels of which 40% was new, 40% 2nd fill and 20% 3rd fill.
- 12 Months on wood
- A very moderate and dry summer ensured that the 2015 vintage will go down as one of the best in history. It yielded wines with great intensity, refined structure and beautiful purity. This wine has enticing aromas of blackcurrant, tobacco and tomato leaves that are complemented by a fine, but dense tannin structure.

Humble bragging. How is this still a thing?
You know the type. They'll say something along the lines of "I really miss my old Chevy Spark. This Audi SUV is so much harder to park."
Rest assured they don't miss that Chevy AT ALL. They just want you to know that they spent truckloads of cash on the latest Audi, but they want to come across as really casual because somehow that makes them cooler. Or something.
You'd think the complete lack of any complimentary responses would put an end to this type of self-appreciation, but if anything it's happening more and more.
We'd love to come up with an effective solution to it but we're waaay too busy running a successful eCommerce company to actually invest the time.
Did you know we're also getting our PhDs on the side? No big deal.
